After using my crock pot, I had a "cooked on, dried up" mess. I filled the crock up two thirds with water, added a drop of dish washing detergent, then turned it on low. After I came home in a few hours, I turned it off and let it cool. The "cooked on" mess was so easy to clean off!
The "high" setting works also, just depends on how quick you need it cleaned. I never have to avoid those messy recipes again.

How do I clean the cooked-on residue from sausage and beans from the inside of a crock pot?
